A good day to read "Who Goes Nazi?", Dorothy Thompson's 1941 essay for the Harper's Magazine:
https://harpers.org/archive/1941/08/who-goes-nazi/
> It is an interesting and somewhat macabre parlor game to play at a large gathering of one’s acquaintances: to speculate who in a showdown would go Nazi. (…) I have come to know the types: the born Nazis, the Nazis whom democracy itself has created, the certain-to-be fellow-travelers. And I also know those who never, under any conceivable circumstances, would become Nazis.
@rysiek oh wow, this is awesome! I live somewhere where the Nazis reigned for 7 years, and I have been playing a version of this game with my family for a while now. This quote is prescient these days:
> Nazism has nothing to do with race and nationality. It appeals to a certain type of mind
Fun article
